Description
This project will conduct research on the extent of Indigenous incarceration in Newfoundland and Labrador and the prevalence of substance use and addictions among Indigenous individuals who have been incarcerated to help inform the policy process.

Description (French)
Ce projet conduira des recherches sur l'ampleur de l'incarcération des Autochtones à Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador et sur la prévalence de la consommation de substances et des dépendances chez les Autochtones qui ont été incarcérés afin d'éclairer le processus politique. First Light développera ensuite des solutions pour surmonter les obstacles à la réinsertion et au traitement avec des partenaires et des personnes autochtones ayant connu l'expérience vécue.
Expected Results

Expected Results (French)
Les intervenants et les Canadiens ciblés ont accès à des renseignements fondés sur des données probantes concernant la consommation de substances et ont la capacité (connaissances, compétences et soutien) d’éclairer leurs décisions et actions en matière de consommation de substances.
